I remember when I first joined, there would be alot of stuff that was quite informative being posted. I learned alot about who was producing behind the various artists names, people would talk about aliases, there would be a lot of threads which the subject line sould be just the name of some song that I never heard of and people would discus the tune inside. There would be a lot of talk about recomendations of tunes to check out, which I am forever grateful for.
A lot of threads would start with people looking to find more tracks of a specific style, they would list some tunes they had and ask for more tunes that went well with them. I found many musicians this way, just by lurking and reading people's comments on tunes. I didn't post very much back then, because I had so little knowledge to contribute to the discussions.
There were the ocdcasional philosophical arguments about weather trance was dying or what songs had the most musical merit, but it was quite different then what is happening these days, where people now seemed to be aligned in almost 2 divided factions.
What I miss about the old discussions we had(besides the hot rave chix picture thread) is that there seemed to be alot more talk about the actual music and a lot less of this genre wars bull crap. I used to be able to come here and actually learn something about trance music by reading people's posts.
The huge argument threads are very fun(or else I wouldnt join in) but I find myself missing the informative posts. I kind of resent the people who are commonly called 'elite' here because they seem to no longer have informative posts about music. I see more and more difference of opinion, the endless effort to point out the stupidity of others, and general bitching about the decline in quality, im not seeing nearly as many tune recomendation threads as I would like anymore.
Fuck being a newbie or an elitists, can we stop arguing for a little bit and talk about music again?
